GENERATIONS

9 - 12 September 2027 State Theatre Centre of WA, Heath Ledger Theatre Buy tickets
Presented by Bangarra Dance Theatre and Arts and Culture Trust

Memory. Presence. Possibility.

Grounded in wisdom of the past and charged by voices of the future, GENERATIONS is a bold new double bill curated by Mirning woman Frances Rings, Bangarra’s Artistic Director and Co-CEO. Bringing together First Nations cultural leaders with acclaimed artists this is a unique dance theatre experience. Journey with us through a world where sacred knowledge and contemporary ideas converge in movement, music and design, propelling memory into a powerful current of new possibilities.

Renowned Yolŋu songman and artist of the Wangurri clan Douglas Djakapurra Munyarryun joins Kullilli man and longstanding Bangarra company member Rikki Mason to create Sever · Rom Bukthunami — a powerful exploration of fractured belonging.

Pipalyatjara Elder Josephine Mick alongside acclaimed choreographer and former Bangarra dancer Jasmin Sheppard, and Josephine's daughter Sally Scales as cultural consultant, bring you SpearHead · Kunpu Kanyini, a celebration of the strength, leadership and enduring power of Central Desert women.

GENERATIONS reminds us the future is not out there waiting to be found — it is already moving within us. Ancestral knowledge is awakened by the voices of the future, shaping a vision for what comes next: alive, evolving and ready to be danced into being.
